An OSS(Open Source Softwares) Awareness Camp was organised by me and my team named
LUGL(Linux User Group Ludhiana) at Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College on Feb.12,2011 where the students were made aware about the various Open Source Technologies.

There are hundreds of compelling reasons why Linux is better than all the rival operating systems. Here are just 20.

1. Linux is free

No matter how many computers you install it on, the cost of Linux remains the same: zero.
In these days of multi-computer households, this can be a massive saving, especially when you consider the cost of all the programs you have to add to a standard Windows installation.

2. Software repositories

Having all the software you need in one place saves you having to trawl the web to find the program you're missing.
